HISTORY
In 1984, two railroad powerhouses, Santa Fe Industries and Southern Pacific Company, proposed a merger to form Santa Fe Southern Pacific Corporation. From this proposition, the two companies formed Santa Fe Pacific Realty Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary group with a mission to conduct all non-railroad real estate activities.
The land assets of this new corporation included sites positioned strategically next to the country’s busiest seaports and rail and roadway transportation routes, which led to unprecedented opportunities to transform large parcels of blighted or underutilized land in some of the nation’s fastest-growing cities.
From September 2005 through June 2011, Catellus merged with ProLogis, a leading owner, operator and developer of industrial real estate worldwide. ProLogis sold the majority of its retail and mixed-use assets, as well as rights to the Catellus name, to TPG Capital, a private entity, in 2011.
Today, Catellus operates as an independent private company based in Emeryville, California, with regional offices and operations nationwide.
